Renaming a measure <blank> in a table not possible anymore?

Hello,

 

I used to be able to rename a measure to <blank> in a table. This was useful for example when the measure was an image URL whereby showing a header saying "Image URL" was quite useless.


It seems not feasible anymore since a few updates. Could it be brought back? 

I'm using a "_" (underscore) now to minimize what I display in column header. Just not great

Hi @Renaud,

 

Maybe you can reinstall the old version to work around. Or you can come up a new idea about that and add your comments there to improve Power BI and make this feature coming sooner.

Hi @Renaud,

 

Based on my test, it is not possbile to change the measure name to blank. Is that possbile to turn the category name off to work around?

Hi @v-frfei-msft, the need is to do it in a table or matrix, not in a card.
Since I have multiple column headers, some still need to show the measure or category name, while some needs to be blank.
It used to be feasible some versions ago.
